What sort of post or comment gets you downvoted the most? Especially if you don't think it's bad behavior in the first place, or don't care. Does not have to be on Lemmy, but we are here... One of the good things about Lemmy IMO is that it's small enough to see the posts that are unpopular. If you do "Top Day" on most channels, you cash reach the bottom, see what people here don't like.
As far as comments, attempting to rebut the person who is telling me my post sucks, is what gets me into negative numbers most often. The OP is going to voite it down, of course, and nobody else cares, usually.

Like I said, take it up with them. I've got no interest in getting to know every single gun owner and every one of their tedious, bullshit opinions and I'm definitely not going to be shamed into giving them a free pass until I've kissed every one of them on the mouth.

Edit: I just noticed that the end of your comment genuinely asserts that "not being nice enough to gun owners caused Ulvade" and I think it's important to tell you to go fuck yourself and don't stop until you bleed out.

The Ulvade shooter was a legal gun owner, in a state the pro-gun community claims a utopia. He had a history of death and rape threats but the pro-gun community staunchly opposed any kind of red flag laws. After the shooting, the pro-gun community was adamant that no laws should be changed, essentially saying "we were fine with this gun sale and we'll be fine with the next".

All those words claiming "I'm not like other ~~girls~~ gun owners" and it turns out you're exactly like them -- a self absorbed, manipulative scumbag trying to pretend it's part of some noble cause.

Dude, I'm saying the insane polarization and treating people's opinions as binary is what's causing gridlock on the federal level and dumb laws on the state level. I am calling Texas' "constitutional carry" law dumb and the reason for the 2 or 3 major shootings that we've had.

It's also great how you chose to not at least skim through my argument and instead decided to cherry-pick a sentence or 2 to respond to out of context. You didn't read the part where I made a distinction between legal and responsible ownership. You illustrated my last point perfectly because you're so completely blinded by hatred and ignorance of people you're not even willing to learn about.

P.S. I've never owned a gun and probably never will, so it's really funny to see you attack me for that.
